伦敦发生货车冲撞行人 1人死亡10人受伤

周一,伦敦北部清真寺附近一辆货车冲撞行人,造成1人死亡,10人受伤,警方说,并补充说,英国反恐官员正在调查此事故。

One man was killed and 10 people were injured after a van collided with pedestrians near a North London mosque on Monday, the Metropolitan Police said, adding the incident was being investigated by British counter terrorism officers.

"One man was pronounced dead at the scene. Eight people injured were taken to three separate hospitals and two people were treated at the scene for minor injuries." the Met said in a statement.

The 48-year old van driver, who was detained by members of public at the scene and then arrested by police, has been taken to hospital and will be subjected to a mental health assessment, the statement added.

Senior national coordinator for counter terrorism Neil Basu told media this morning that “no matter what the motivation proves to be, and we are keeping an open mind, this is being treated as a terrorist attack and the Counter Terrorism Command is investigating."

Prime Minister Theresa May said she will chair a meeting of the emergency Cobra committee following the "terrible incident."

"All my thoughts are with those who have been injured, their loved ones and the emergency services on the scene," May added

Three major terror attacks -- two in London and one in Manchester -- had been carried out in the UK over the past four months prior to this incident.
